Gait and Posture, 2002
The role of leg length discrepancy (LLD) both as a biomechanical impediment and a predisposing factor for associated musculoskeletal disorders has been a source of controversy for some time. LLD has been implicated in affecting gait and running mechanics and economy, standing posture, postural sway, as well as increased incidence of scoliosis, low back

Tibial shortening for leg length discrepancy
The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1989 Over a 25-year period, 12 patients had from 2.5 to 5.1 cm operative shortening of the tibia and fibula for leg length discrepancy at between four and 18 years of age. All recovered normal function and there was minor cosmetic impairment in only two cases. The only vascular complication was temporary delay in return of the circulation to the foot after

Parental perspectives on leg length discrepancy
Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics B, 2012 This study investigated perspectives of 58 parents on leg length discrepancy (LLD) of their children using a questionnaire survey. There were significant differences in the pain/comfort (P=0.021) and global function subscales (P=0.013) of the pediatric outcomes data collection instrument between the idiopathic LLD and posttraumatic LLD groups ...

ABSTRACT Leg length discrepancy (LLD) is a condition of length differences in the lower extremity, caused by variety of factors, both congenital and acquired. Measurement using measuring tape, block test, and supine-tositting test based on bony landmarks is considered less accurate than imaging techniques.

Leg Length Discrepancy In Scoliotic Patients
2012The aetiological aspects as well as postural attitude implications represent an open question in scoliosis evaluation and treatment. Leg length discrepancy (LLD) is often recognised in scoliotic patients, but surprisingly still controversial is the use of underfoot wedge corrections in order to compensate pelvis tilt.

Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1986
The proper management of LLD requires careful clinical and radiologic assessment, and repeated analysis of past growth in order to predict future growth. Treatment decisions must be re-evaluated constantly in the light of new leg length data and evolving surgical technique.

Leg-length discrepancy measured by ultrasonography
Acta Orthopaedica Scandinavica, 1991Leg-length discrepancy was determined by real-time ultrasonography (ultrasound) in 45 patients, and the measurements were compared with those of erect-posture radiography. A special device for holding and moving the ultrasound transducer was constructed, and the leg length was measured as the highest level of the femoral head in the standing position ...

LEG LENGTH DISCREPANCY IN MARATHON RUNNERS
Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 1983The incidence and degree of leg length discrepancy was studied in 35 male marathon runners. Seventy- seven percent were in their 30s or 40s. Eighteen run ners had a length difference of less than 5 mm, 10 had a difference of 5 to 9 mm, and 7 had differences of 1.0 cm or greater. Four of the five runners using a lift had less than a 5-mm discrepancy. It
